Floral Integration and Phenotypic Selection on Floral Traits of <i>Ipomoea cavalcantei</i> (Convolvulaceae), a Rare, Endemic, and Endangered Species to the Amazon Ironstone Outcrops. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis paper analyzed the evolutionary potential of Ipomoea cavalcantei (an endemic species from the Amazon) by using floral integration and phenotypic selection analysis. The analyzed population presented floral integration in style length, probably due to selective pressures from pollinators on floral traits related to pollen deposition.

Mountain colonization precedes shifts away from bee pollination in Melastomataceae. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary Shifts among different groups of pollinators are central in the evolution of flowering plants, yet mechanisms underlying pollinator shifts remain unclear. Environment‐induced reduction in pollinator availability and hence efficiency may destabilize ancestral plant–pollinator interactions and trigger shifts to new, more efficient pollinators ...

Plants, Pollinators and Pheromones: Promises and Lies of Semiochemicals. [PDF]
Plant Cell EnvironABSTRACT Pollination is traditionally regarded as a quintessential mutualism, yet many plants employ deceptive strategies to achieve reproductive success. Among the most intriguing is sexual deception, wherein flowers mimic the sex pheromones and visual signals of female insects to attract male pollinators—without providing any reward.

Untangling biodiversity interactions: A meta network on pollination in Earth's most diverse tropical savanna. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe addressed how pollination meta network with vertebrate and invertebrate species is assembled in the world's most diverse savanna and identified potential biogeographical bias within the region. We found a generalization of interactions at the meta network level but a high degree of specialization within the modules, where bees are the module ...

Pollination and plant reproduction in the Cerrado, the world's most biodiverse savanna. [PDF]
Biol Rev Camb Philos SocABSTRACT The Brazilian Cerrado is a continental‐wide biodiversity hotspot and the most species‐rich savanna ecosystem in the world. The main aspect characterising this biodiversity is that the landscape is arranged as an intricate mosaic of different plant formations, including grasslands, savannas, and forests, each harbouring distinct but ...
